So, yeah, this whole not enough space for the heatshrink on your connectors thing kinda bugs me.
I don't like the amount of pressure there is between the heatsink and the shrink tubing on my motor wire bullets. There will be metal on metal contact there after only a few runs...at the very least, it is something to worry about.
So, what do I do? Just wait'l something goes wrong or send it back to them asking for one that leaves anough of a gap that I don't have to worry about these connectors shorting to the heatsink?

What the hell, Castle? Nowhere during your quality checking did anyone notice this might present an issue? I mean, why would anyone wanna put shrinkwrap on their connectors? Of course people will want all 3 motor leads making contact with the same aluminum heatsink...

Think I'll see what I can manage with a scap of lexan, but I'm really getting sick of the whole Castle mantra of "fix it yourself before using".

If I wanted it to be like this, I'd be buying caps, fets and circuitboards and making my own.
